Caught a 7:00am flight to Salt Lake City this morning and man was it a refreshing morning!! it was sunny and in the 50's in Salt Lake, with tons of snow still on the mountains...
Flew back this evening and couldn't believe how cool it still was here in the valley!!! Love it!!

Rained for about 20 minutes around T-Bird and the I-17 today. Was shocked to see it!

This was the greatest day in a LONG time. As a golfer, it was so sad to get another day like this.....just reminded me that we aren't going to have another day like this for another 4-5 months. 8-10 hours outside when its 100+ degrees is not nearly as good as 8-10 hours when its 75 and cloudy with a light breeze.

I went and played 18 holes of golf yesterday midday. Won't do that again until Fall.

Decided to hook the swamp cooler up today. Running it for the first time this year.

We set up a swamp cooler at work the other day. This is the first time I've ever seen one, I was excited to get it running. It hadn't been used in a long time so we had to clean it up and it was blowing out ass scented air for a while. It was running nice and assfunk free today.

Swamp coolers are fantastic while they're effective. As soon as the humidity goes up at all, they're useless. But until then, REALLY cheap cooling. :thumbup:
